"This is for you, and because of you, gorgeous", Malek said.

"I have no idea what is happening", she said, looking stunned (or maybe just mock-stunned) upon returning to her hosting duties, her Golden Globe still in her hand. "The Academy.would NEVER award best motion picture to Bohemian Rhapsody. unreal".

Oh, who was featured in this year's blockbuster film "Crazy Rich Asians" picked up the best performance by an actress in a TV drama prize for her work on BBC America's "Killing Eve".

"I wanted to share that hope with you because we are still living in divided times", Farrelly said. I tried to take everything he was struggling with, his complication, his chaos, his turmoil and this beauty inside of him.

Best drama series went to the acclaimed FX Cold War spy thriller The Americans - its first Golden Globe for its sixth and final season.

"It's not something I really wish to talk about tonight", said producer Graham King.

But there was one talented singer and actress who clearly was having the best time ever.

The two big awards of the night going to Bohemian Rhapsody was a surprise to some who thought A Star is Born was going to clean up on the night.

Netflix comedy The Kominsky Method took home the best comedy series trophy and best actor honours for Michael Douglas.

Also receiving multiple awards was "Roma", Alfonso Cuaron's affectionate look at his childhood in Mexico City, which won for best foreign film and best director.

Malik thanked Queen band members Brian May and Roger Taylor, as well as Freddy Mercury for providing the role of a lifetime.
